My Capsule for Spring Capsule Wardrobe Contest

I'll be joining the Spring Capsule Wardrobe Challenge for the first time. I had to design a capsule to work with my work schedule this week. This challenge will make an otherwise busy week a lot of fun. I already had fun just preparing for it. Here's my capsule:

10 individual items:

  1. Black straight jeans
  2. Dark denim pencil skirt
  3. Grey brogue booties
  4. Black tall boots
  5. Black cardigan
  6. Citrus polka dot cardigan
  7. White tunic shirt
  8. Graphic tunic-length dress
  9. Citrus printed jersey top
  10. Blue boat neck top

 

5 Accessories:

  1. Black and white belt with bike buckle
  2. Citrus+black+grey+yellow beaded necklace
  3. Red silk scarf
  4. Black bag
  5. Turquoise ladybug pin

 

The hardest part of the planning for me was to reduce the accessories. I generally use a few basic pieces, but play with accessories to make my outfits look different every time. I had to think more interms of patterns and textures for the challenge.

Below is my current plan.  Let's see if I'll have to deviate from it at all... 11-15 represent accessories. I'll stick 15 whenever I feel the need for an extra accessory.

  • Monday: 1+3+5+7+11+13+14
  • Tuesday: 2+3+6+10+11+12+14
  • Wednesday: 1+4+7+9+11+12+14
  • Thursday: 2+4+5+7+11+13+14
  • Friday: 1+4+5+8+11+14+15
